关于Rawai Beach
Rawai is the working harbour at the southern tip of Phuket, facing east towards Coral Island and Koh Lone. Dozens of longtail boats wait on the shore for trips to Koh Bon, Coral Island and the Racha islands, and a beachfront road of about a kilometre runs along the bay under casuarina trees.
Next to Rawai Pier, the Rawai Seafood Market is one of Phuket's favourite dining experiences: you buy fish, prawns, lobster and crab from the stalls and have them cooked at the restaurants across the road. Further along the beachfront, Thai families eat at tables on the sidewalk by the water, with lanterns in the trees and the islands going dark in front of them.
The shore is rocky and shallow, and at low tide the water retreats far out over a muddy bottom, so Rawai is not a place to swim or sunbathe; a small sandy stretch at the east end is used by local children. The Chao Ley sea gypsy community lives near the pier. For a swim, Nai Harn is 2 km away.

我们对Rawai Beach的评分
4.0（满分 5）
A seafood lunch or dinner by the sea and a longtail trip to the islands.
Rawai is a working harbour, not a swimming beach: the water is shallow, full of longtail boats and retreats far at low tide. It earns its place for Phuket's most famous seafood market, a casuarina-lined beachfront of local restaurants and the longtails to the southern islands, with Nai Harn's sand 2 km away.

Rawai Beach小贴士
Go for fresh seafood before 14:00
The freshest choice at the market is from about 10:00 to 14:00.
Pay the vendor, then the cook
You pay the stall for the raw seafood and the restaurant separately for cooking it.
Walk further for local tables
Beyond the market, local restaurants set tables on the sidewalk by the water under lanterns.
Agree the longtail price first
Longtail prices are negotiated with the drivers; settle the price and return time before you leave.
Swim at Nai Harn
Rawai is not for swimming; Nai Harn, 2 km away, is one of the best swimming beaches in the south.
Respect the Chao Ley village
It is a living community, not a show; ask before taking photos of people.
